1st surf lesson disaster

you would have died laughing at me on my first lesson at some beach in hawaii during my family vacation. I rented a surf board according to my size and it was like 4 ft taller then me which took me 20mins to get on then after safety etc our instructor took us out into the sea.

"i'll hold the board, you catch this wave" he said, well, the wave took me at full belt, he said "now stand up", which is where all went wrong! I must have moved my hands forward too much-front of board went 50ft under water, me with it and wave crashed over my head. Sounds of underwater doplhins and angels playing harps.

After 100hours under water spluttering for my life i found the surface thinking i had died, and wondered how far out i really had been taken------
the instructor was right in front of me, with the water up to his knees, i was 2ft in water!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he laughed for ages!!!!!

btw, what music do you listen to before you surf? i recomend the casanovas (myspace.com/thecasanovas)
